66th outdoor ride of 2023 - Tuesday, 8/29/2023

2023 Mileage: 3241.5


This morning's conditions for my ride were almost identical to yesterday's. At 66° when I began at 9:00 (rising to 74° during the ride), and under calm and unbroken blue skies, it was again as near to perfect for riding as a day could be. I rode a round trip to the west end of Saline (about a mile past Wellers).


However, when I stopped to take the above picture, the MapMyRide app on my phone, even though I paused it, instead terminated the workout. So I had restart it for the second part of the ride. This meant I had to calculate my average speed when I got home. But I'm happy to report that, while I try to maintain an average speed of at least 8 mph (which I can't always do), today I did this long ride at an overall average speed of 8.3 mph.

This gave me a ride of 15.9 miles in 1:55.
